Maison Regain Daybed in Black Stained Mahogany and Wool

Maison Regain, daybed, black stained mahogany, wool, France, 1980s.

A Maison Regain daybed, distinguished by its construction in black-stained mahogany, a considerably rarer material choice than the elm wood more commonly associated with the atelier’s production.

The shape is defined by a low-lying, rectilinear silhouette. The base is formed from two thick horizontal rails stacked vertically, with a subtle reveal between them that introduces a sense of lightness and rhythm. At each corner, the ends of the rails feature precise box-joint details, which not only reinforce the structure but also serve as a decorative articulation. The mattress itself rests atop this solid base, a simple rectangular cushion covered in an off-white woolen fabric. Its volume mirrors the base below, maintaining the overall rectilinear discipline.
